"There is an ancient Chinese belief that an invisible, unbreakable red thread connects all those who are destined to be together." This is the beginning of a very beautiful story: The Red Thread: An Adoption Fairy Tale by Grace Lin.
Even though I did not adopt, I do have a foster daughter and have felt the tug of a red thread. Children are precious and this story beautifully describes the love felt within an adoptive family. A good bedtime story for all children, no matter where they came from.
Favorite line: (Besides the first line listed above.) They knew they were very lucky.
